In the late 80s and early 90s, Milan appeared in five European Cup finals in the space of seven years, triumphing on three of those occasions. The high point of ‘the Immortals,’ however, was surely going 58 games unbeaten between 1991 and 1993.

Despite changing managers, with André Villas-Boas taking over from Jesualdo Ferreira, before the Vítor Pereira-managed team were finally beaten by Gil Vicente FC, the Portuguese side managed to maintain an incredible 55-game unbeaten run. Their 1994-1996 counterparts also went 53 matches unbeaten while Bobby Robson was in charge of the club.

Despite having an average age of just 23, this Louis van Gaal-managed side went the whole of the 1994-95 season unbeaten, while they also reached two successive Champions League finals, beating Milan in 1995, before losing to Juventus on penalties a year later.

6. Steaua Bucharest (1986-89)

Steaua Bucharest still hold the record for domestic games unbeaten — 106 matches. They won five successive domestic titles and also impressed in Europe during the late 80s, reaching the European Cup final twice.

Coincidentally, Juventus in 2011-12 went 49 Serie A games unbeaten — the exact same number that Arsenal’s Invincibles managed. They were eventually beaten in November 2012 by Inter — the match was the first time they ever lost at the Juventus Stadium, which had opened in September 2011.
